Swagbucks presents a mixed reputation among its users, with some customers appreciating the variety of ways to earn rewards, such as surveys and games. However, significant concerns dominate the feedback, particularly regarding account deactivations, unresponsive customer service, and delayed payouts. Many users report frustration over not receiving compensation for completed surveys and feeling misled about earning potential. The overall sentiment leans towards dissatisfaction, with a notable number of users warning others against investing time in the platform due to perceived scams and inadequate support. This suggests a pressing need for the company to enhance its customer service and reliability.

Make extra money, interesting topic, attractive point, bonus, reward quick.the only thing I don't like is customer service. There is no customer service phone number you can reach.the only way is to send the email and sometimes it's not really helpful.
FREE gift cards are awesome. All I had to do was watch my notifications, search the web, and play alittle Swago. Easy Peasy. Looking forward to earning even more gift cards. Did I mention FREE?
Why should you choose Swagbucks? They kept their promises. That is all. If one can keep their promises, they should be trusted.
I'm made 2 purchases of giftcards at Swagbucks and so far am pleased. I wish I would get more surveys, though. I can't keep buying stuff to get Swagbucks.
It is a good way to make money when I'm doing something on my computer anyway. Surveys are a good distraction when stuck waiting somewhere. Once you figure out how it works you can have a little bit of bonus money every month. Don't expect to get rich or pay all your bills.
Easy to use. Great rewards. Lots of ways to earn points to get rewards. The app is super easy to follow.
Swagbucks is great for earning a little extra cash, in the form of gift cards, in your free time. It is hard to accumulate points fast without spending money. A little time every day can add up to some nice rewards in the end, if you can spare the time. Overall, a great site that DOES pay out.
With Swagbucks I've been able to earn $5-$25 gift cards for online stores that I frequent just from having them as my default browser. There are other options to obtain points (Games, Videos, Surveys, etc.) too if I choose to do so. There's no stress to use my points in a certain time limit and, if I don't want to spend them on myself, I can donate my points to a cause I feel is worth it.
I have been a member for a couple years and like that I can earn a little extra money. I have found that recently it is harder to get "accepted" into surveys, or you will get through half of the survey and answering the questions and will get booted out telling you it's full or you don't qualify. It also can take a week to have them send you the code for your gift card. The site works, and you can make money, you just have to be tolerant of these things :)
I've been a member for less than a month, and have already made over $50 using Swagbucks! Love it! Easy to earn points, especially when buying online for things I'm already shopping for - Its like getting $$$ back!
I love this site. If you have problems with any thing. Swagbucks will help you. Its a great way to make some cash, surveys, games, videos to watch, and so much more.
Great app, fun to use great to get free gift cards I recommend it to all my friend and family they just need surveys where you can qualify to use for points
Swagbucks is great because it's easy to use and the wait time on the gift cards is quick. Online shopping that you actually get something for? Yes please.
They won't back up to their word after i sign up for their website all the code that i put it, it kept on saying it invalid but I contacted customer service and from there it was just misleading information and nonsense. Waste of time, It a fraud website I wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy.
It is OK and not hard to use. I avoid all their "special offers" for two reasons:
1. They refuse to recognize me often. Have talked to CS, but they are not interested in assisting (not important enough to them?)
2. The few offers/polls I have done, either the points NEVER showed up, or they took so long I gave up on them
I like Swagbucks but it's become very difficult to earn any swagbucks as the years pass. The amount of time you spend on any of the activities are hardly awarded appropriately and if you have issues with being rewarded you almost get punished for reporting it especially when it's often. New rules claiming a free trial saying only sign-up if you're truly interested in the offer is ridiculous. How does swagbucks know if somebody really isn't? I could sign-up for a few offers and decide I didn't like any of them and cancel the subscription because it wasn't for me. So how can you say that somebody just signed up for swagbucks and canceled before they were charged? I like trying new things but if I don't like what they offered before the billing cycle starts, of course I'm canceling quickly as possible. That shouldn't mean I should lose out on any swagbucks because I didn't stick with the offer. I've never had this issue but I'm just saying it's utter bs. That quote on those offers makes me not want to try out new products alone anymore from the Swagbucks website.
I've used this site for several years now -- I keep coming back because it's a nice easy way to earn some extra money.
I like mainly the surveys. Sometimes I get a little frustrated at not qualifying but am glad that if I'M m patient I eventually qualify for a survey and earn Swagbucks that can be redeemed for great rewards. My favorite reward is Amazon gift cards.
Swag bucks enables me to earn points for gift cards in my spare time without ever leaving my house.
Answer: They are definately legit been a member for many years and have earned over 70,000 swagbucks been paid many times with no problems also use there swagbutton with no problems
Answer: It is real cash, since you can have the payment through PayPal or Visa cards. They're not going to just deposit into a bank account.
Answer: Each point is a penny. So if you want a $5 gift card you need 500 Swagbucks. My only recommendation is don't get the Visa cards. All other cards work easily online or in store. Visa never seems to be accepted anywhere.
Answer: No, it won't steal your personal data. It's perfectly safe.
Answer: Got to $28 rather quick but the next $2 i need to cash out IS TAKING FOREVER!
Answer: You need to earn swagbucks to get a gift card. As few as 300-500 swagbucks will get you a gift card (worth $3 - $5). Better gift cards are available for more swagbucks.
Answer: Either way. Some gift cards are physical cards and are mailed and some are online.
Answer: "... the page disappeared..."? If this is about getting a bonus for using the Search function, the page doesn't disappear; it sits there until you move off it. A couple times, I have moved off a page before realizing there was a Search bonus. I hit the Back button on my browser & input the code, no problem. Of course, if you don't respond in a timely manner, the bonus expires. (I think it's around 3 minutes, but I'm not certain.) Also, if you input a non-matching code, you'll get a new code, but only 2x (3 chances in total). Are you maybe talking about a SwagCode? That's a bonus that appears on an otherwise normal page. And again the page doesn't disappear. If you take too long, you get an expired notice in the SwagCode box, but the page remains.
Answer: Many giftcards are sent electronically. Some are within a few hours, others can take a few days. How well they pay depends on which activity you're referring to and also how much time and effort you devote to earning. Some activities are USELESS, like watching videos - you watch 15 30-second videos and are only paid 2SB, the equivalent of 2¢. For 7.5mins, that's asinine! However, some of the activities, like the surveys, in-store shopping/receipt upload and games (such as Swago) can offer a great bonus here and there.
Answer: You never get paid from there discovery items, huge scam
